CHARACTER INTERVIEW--AMERGIN FROM AUTHOR M.L. FOXX'S CELTIC MYST TRILOGY

The Irish Countryside. Close your eyes and imagine the dragons of yore.
Today we sit down for a chat with Amergin from M.L. Foxx’s Celtic Myst Trilogy. 

What was your life like before your author started pulling your strings?
I had a lot of responsibility with the de Dannan clan. It all started thousands of years ago, before the measurement of time.... We lived in Inis Fail, which is Ancient Ireland. Then my author wanted me to tell my story. And so I did, and it took three books to tell all.

Amergin
What’s the one trait you like most about yourself?
I am Amergin, a druid and I am a descendent of the original wise one that placed the elemental power of the lands in the hands of the Tribe of Danu. I'm a wizard charged with the task of providing wisdom and protection for the descendants of the Tuatha de Danann.

What do you like least about yourself?
My liege does not always take my ideas seriously. Though the Danu come from a long line of faeries, my liege is not one. And so he does not always take me at my word and it can take a lot to convince him. And sometimes I have to lower myself to begging for the good of the clan. I do not enjoy that at all. 

What is the strangest thing your author has had you do or had happen to you?
Well, I created a dragon. That was a challenge I tell you. But I was up to the task and Palriad the Magnificent was able to take on the dark dragon of the witch and come out victorious.

Do you argue with your author? 
Not very often, but yes I did. 

If so, what do you argue about?
I wanted to have a mate going through eternity and she said no. So I am a lonely wizard, but I do have my Aibell Brid and her loved ones to watch over and mentor. 

What is your greatest fear?
That Mourdra (that is the witch) will win and I will have lost that which the Gods and Goddesses tasked me with. The protection of the de Dannan’s. 

What makes you happy?
Watching Aibell Brid and her daughter Derdriu dance and play their fiddles. 

If you could rewrite a part of your story, what would it be? Why?
Because it is a trilogy, it is a continuation of the story. I cannot tell what I would like to change because it would be a spoiler for the end of the first book, and it would also end the story before the completion of prophecy. 

Of the other characters in your book, which one bugs you the most? Why?
The fact that Mourdra can see what the de Dannan’s are doing in her Cauldron. And the clan and villagers have no idea when she is going to attack. 

Of the other characters in your book, which one would you love to trade places with? Why?
Cuchulain Dubhshlàine because he is a warrior and mortal. He does not have to live forever and protect those from evil forces. He protects his loved ones in battle not through spells and magic.
